Most people say "sugar" to mean granulated sugar. Different sugars are pure cane sugar and confectionery sugar (the powdered kind).
The only difference between caster sugar and normal sugar is how fine the gains are.
rwgular sugar is granulated sugar. the other kind is confectioner's sugar, or powdered sugar
Granulated sugar is the regular table sugar people use on a daily basis, although technically the term "granulated sugar" could refer to sugar which is derived from beet roots. Raw sugar is a byproduct of the refining of sugarcane to obtain regular sugar. You can certainly substitute one for another in cooking, however, you should not substitute them for another in baking, since the size and texture of the products are different, and that can affect baking results.
From a nutrition/health perspective they are so alike that there's no meaningful difference between them.
i would say regular sugar is granulated sugar or as some people call it white sugar.
Sucrose
muscovado sugar has nutrition that regular sugar does not have
The main distinguishing feature of confectioners' sugar is that its a very fine powder (while regular sugar is often in powder form, it is more granular, hence the name granulated). This helps the confectioners' sugar dissolve faster, which may aid in some applications.
You can use regular granulated sugar to make ice cream.
In diet, they put more sugar in it and less sugar in regular
Cane sugar comes from sugar cane. Granulated sugar most likely comes from sugar beets. Some people believe they perform differently but you will never know the difference.
Superfine sugar- or Bartender's sugar, is more course than powdered sugar. Superfine sugar is similar to castor sugar (and can substitute each other), but if I were to put it in order, Superfine would have the largest granules, and powdered sugar would have the smallest. Powdered sugar cannot be substituted with superfine sugar, or castor sugar, since it's too fine :3.
Confectioners sugar (also called Powdered sugar) differs from "regular sugar" (Granulated sugar) in two ways. Confectioners sugar it's milled to a much finer grain and, and it has cornstarch in it to prevent caking. If you run of of Granulated sugar, you can substitute with Confectioners sugar. Multiply the amount of granulated sugar needed by 1.75. It takes 1 3/4 cup of powdered sugar to substitute for 1 cup of granulated sugar.
